Thanks for asking Laurie. I'd say we may perhaps want to do this, but only
if and when it becomes much easier - for example once we have migrated all
our wheel build infra to GitHub Actions and cibuildwheel. For now I'm
inclined to say that https://github.com/alpine-wheels has NumPy wheels you
can use, and that Alpine is a niche platform, so this is quite low-prio for
us.

In general, providing wheels for every platform under the sun is not
sustainable - see

for more context.

Cheers,
Ralf
